Soldotna to Homer, 76 miles, July 29, 2010

Homer:  Oceanview RV Park, full hookup, 30 amp, $45.00+tax

Today we decided to move on down the Kenai Peninsula to Homer.  The RV park we left (Best Western King Salmon RV Park in Soldotna) was becoming deserted.  Last weekend it was almost full.

Early on our 76 mile drive down the Sterling Hwy towards Homer was this sign.  What I don’t know if this number is from July 1st, 2010 or ??  Seems high for 2010 but who knows.  Luckily for us we did not meet any moose up close and personal.

Here is what Bob does now when we arrive at a RV park, he has to unwire the closed steps and securely wire them open.  Works for us!

Quote from the Lonely Planet’s,  Alaska book regarding Homer, “Lucky is the visitor who drives into Homer on a clear day.”  Although it was not clear, you could see some blue sky, more than we have seen for a few days.  The forecast for the next few days are for clouds with some showers.

This afternoon while I was putting up our RV antenna, I was telling Bob that one of these days it was going to come apart as it was loose, well as soon as those words were out of my mouth, the handle and spring flew apart.  Soon Bob had it back together, evidently the Allen screw had loosened up.

Surrounding all the RV spots at the park is white and pink clover also some daisies.
